The most ridiculous "no call" against the Vols ever?

[feathersax]

He was Allama Matthews when he was playing for Vanderbilt. He was first team All-America as a TE in 82.

Alamma Mathews the vandie culprit. Saw him play for the commode-doors in college, & he owned a chain of burger joints in Florida. Most despicable call against the Vols & NO accident.

Mathews called it a touchdown because when played played at candy touchdowns were few and far between so he was not sure what touchdown looked like. Lol

I gave you a like for the amount of detail. And also because of your lake chick reference.

Yup, fished both Chickamauga and Nickajack. Oh and Lake Guntersville as well

If the extras had been running to the sidelines when the ball was snapped that would be a decent argument. But they were all in the formation at the snap. A couple of guys had started off the field and were waved back on.

2010 UT had a real gripe about the UNC game. But the LSU game was simply Dooley out Les-ing Les Miles.

If the LSU game had been officiated correctly and the snap delayed while the officials checked to see if Tennessee was going to respond to LSU's substitutions, most likely time would have expired before the snap of the ball.

What always bothered me is that we ran the ball about 65 times that day with Peyton Manning at QB.

I went back and watched the game on YT yesterday and Manning did have a pretty rough day. He had 2 bad INTs and had several overthrows. He just wasn't fully clicking with the receivers.

Absolutely the worst no call EVER.
Cost us that game.
There's no way that was a catch.

Eh...don't know about that. It was only 2nd down from the 3. They had no timeouts but even if they call that incomplete and they don't score on 3rd down, it most likely would have gone to OT.

It was a terrible call, no disputing that. But we also had a 3rd and 1 past midfield with 2:41 left and we didn't convert. Get that first down, chances of us winning go way up and at the least UF would have had to use all their TOs instead of just 1.

There was a play late in the 2015 Alabama game with us leading. Coker went to pass and Barnett I believe was blatantly held right in front of the official. Pulling the jersey right off of him. Barnett had him for a sack that would have made it 2nd and about 22 without the hold and with a holding call would have been 1st and 20. Instead the hold gave Coker time to escape and scramble back to the original los. My hair nearly set on fire. Not saying we would have won. But it certainly didn't help us.

This, and what makes it worse is when we had like 3rd and 2 on 3rd down we got it. It was the previous possession when we were running the clock out. The Tennessee WR on the end of the line ask the line judge if he was okay (off), the official gave him the nod. After the snap he dropped the flag. Fulmer was more pissed about that than the blown TD call.

I just watched it yesterday, I don't think that was the possession before. We had 3rd and 1 on about the UF 48 and there was no penalty, we just got blown up and didn't get the first down.

the kickoff return by Memphis State in 1996 where the guy was clearly down. That call was missed by Al Mathews also....
